About the book:

Julia Hughes has always played it safe until she learned a very painful lesson. Now Julia’s starting over with a job in the Louisiana bayou—and a scorching encounter with a stranger, only to discover he’s Lucian de Vincent… her new employer. The de Vincent brothers share a massive fortune and a dark reputation. Julia cares for their troubled sister, but a menacing presence in the mansion—and the ever-present temptation of Lucian—prove dangerously distracting.

Lucian’s grandmother claimed de Vincent men fall in love once—and hard. Apparently, it’s Lucian’s turn. Julia’s compassionate care of his twin makes Lucian want to lay himself bare. But some secrets are better for Julia not to know.

The recent “suicide” of Lucian’s father is the latest in a string of deaths on the estate. Someone is eliminating the de Vincents. And the best way to get to Lucian may be through Julia…

My Thoughts:

I’ve loved all the other Jennifer L. Armentrout books I’ve read but I have to admit this one was just meh to me. It was a mix of mystery, thriller and romance but the story dragged a little to me. I felt the pacing could have moved a little faster and it would have made the book more enjoyable. I liked Julia and Lucien but I can’t say I fell in love with either. Lucien’s family has a lot of issues and Lucien’s brothers are intriguing. I will say I’m curious to find out more about Gabe and Devlin and since like I mentioned, I normally love Armentrout’s books I will definitely give the next one a try.
